Optical mount and heat separator apparatus

Abstract

The invention provides an apparatus for dissipating heat produced by a laser beam on co-located optics for lighting projection. The apparatus is designed to mount a laser module with a collar system for laser beam alignment to provide a mounting area for lighting optics to enable dissipation of heat from the optic at a good distance away from the laser module as a plugin in lamp system.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . Optical mount and heat separator apparatus comprising the use of a laser module collar tube section to a table mounting section for optical and optomechanical components to be contained for heat dissipation with a cap section to secure said components. 
     
     
         2 . Optical mount and heat separator apparatus of  claim 1 ,
 the tubular collar provides a means for a laser module to be secured for laser beam travel, enclosed safety protection, and alignment to the table mounting area of optical and optomechanical components.   
     
     
         3 . Optical mount and heat separator apparatus of  claim 1   the tubular collar section is replaceable for varying lengths to fit into prior art lighting fixtures.   
     
     
         4 . Optical mount and heat separator apparatus of  claim 1 ,
 where the collar tube section and table mount section can be manufactured as one piece.
